Kevin's collection, which he often calls a "Lamy museum", is a nearly exhaustive representation of the brand's history, from the early Artus pens of the 1950s through to the latest models like the Dialog cc and Ideos. From the ubiquitous Safari (in over 50 regular and special edition finishes) to the flagship Imporium, with countless rarities and curiosities in between, discover over 100 years of evolution in "Lamy design" all in one place.
